Will give brainliest! Which of the following best describes the expression 5(x + 2)? (5 points) The sum of constant factors 5 and x + 2 The product of constant factors 5 and x + 2 The sum of a constant factor 5 and a 2-term factor x + 2 The product of a constant factor 5 and a 2-term factor x + 2

5 is a constant. (it has no variables)

x + 2 is not a constant. It does, however, have two terms, x and 2.

(terms are separated by addition/subtraction)

This rules out a and b.

As for c... 5(x+2) implies multiplication, which would be a product, not a sum.

d. The product of a constant factor 5 and a 2-term factor x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
